O'Brien to Barter Fair site, back to O'Brien, OR
Wednesday September 29, 2004
4:48am I woke in my bus around 4:30. I wanted a cigarette so I'm going to go snipe hunt in Tom's van. I'll try not to make noise.
5:08am I'm back. Successful tobacco raid.
5:57am I'm having a good morning. I worked out and smoked some weed and smoked tobacco. I had a successful tobacco raid in Tom's van. I'm going to crash out again.
9:05am I woke up again.
9:26am I've just been chilling out in the bus watching this candle burn. I was making a little fire in the ashtray and it cracked last night. This morning I was playing with the wax and playing with fire. It's probably dangerous, but oh well. It gave me something to do.
Oh yeah, I never told you. Shadow
hooked me up with a lot of weed yesterday. I was helping him clean some of his harvest. I helped him trim his crop. He told me, "I usually do this myself, but do you want to do something?" I picked off all the popcorn buds attached to the stem. I picked them off like four or five branches and I made a big pile. He handed me two plastic baggies and he told me to put half in one and half in the other. I did what he told me and asked him, "Does this look alright?" He gave me the bigger baggy. I have to take it to the bus and let it dry for a couple days. I just scored me a lot of weed. Traveling-weed.
And, I just realized I can try and sell six dollars worth and try and get me my camera. That's what I'm going to do. Let it dry a little more today and tomorrow I'll go try and sell some weed. Now I'm going to go hit the weights.
11:11am I was hanging out at Tom's and all of a sudden there's a government helicopter outside. Just up there snooping around. They're here to assassinate me, hehe. Damn. Shit's going down.
1:13pm Oh yeah, I didn't tell you. I lost my water bottle. I found it again. Oh yeah, I just found out that Cindy and Tom have a big stash of peanut butter. Like whole shelves full. And bread. I ate like three or four sandwiches. Now, we're all going to the Barter Fair.
2:11pm We've arrived at the Barter Fair site. I just see a lot of big empty fields. It's supposed to start up a little later today.
2:48pm Oh yeah, I don't think I've ever expressed my dislike for the Barter Fair already and I haven't even been to one. Tom and Cindy told me that millions of dollars go through the Barter Fairs. Umm, it's the Barter Fair. Isn't the whole point not using money? Hypocrites.
Hippiecrites.
4:42pm Oh yeah, I forgot to mention. I'm leaving. I've been so bored at the Barter Fair and it's not going to get better. Earlier I had gone to some guy in charge and told him I wanted to help. He said I would be helping with the parking. Screw that. I don't want to be out there parking death machines all day. I have much better things to do. If anything, I should be out there telling people my story today.
Plus, it doesn't start until like Friday and today is Wednesday. I would have a whole day of just sitting there and doing nothing. This is bullshit. Screw it, I'm going to go back to O'Brien, see if I can talk to Fawn. I need to somehow get six dollars so I can buy a camera. I'll try and sell this weed if I have to. Then, I'll walk back to Our Mountain and take pictures. Then, I can leave to Arcata.
4:55pm Steven pulled over and he's giving me a ride back to four corners. I appreciate it, brother. Everybody gets credit, thanks.
5:08pm He even gave me a cigarette. I appreciate it, brother.
5:20pm I just got dropped off in Cave Junction. I don't know know how I'm going to make it back to the bus. I have this weed I can sell.
6:22pm Jason hooked me up with some change outside the Shop Smart. I appreciate it, brother. Everybody gets credit, thanks.
6:52pm I gave up on spanging at Shop Smart. It was all old people. I got like maybe twelve cents.
I'm going to go out to the road and walk and stick my thumb out and see if I can get back to O'Brien.
6:55pm I didn't have to wait long. Robert pulled over and he picked me up. I appreciate it, Robert. Everybody gets credit, thanks.
7:10pm I'm in O'Brien. Robert hooked me up. He even knew who Shadow was.
I walked up to the store and sat down. Robert hooked me up with a lot of tobacco.
7:52pm I just had a great presentation with this guy Josh. I rattled off my whole shpeel to him. Some other kid here at the O'Brien Store. He was using the phone. I was meant to come here.
8:19pm That kid I talked to, Josh I think his name was. He said he was going to walk home nearby and bring me back a lighter. He never came back, so I'm going to walk off.
9:35pm I never told you. I've been walking for like ten minutes or something.
